I purchased the US Gift card from the internet to redeem with my US Apple Account. Does it okay if I redeem it outside of the US? (Currently, I’m not in the US)

I purchased the US Gift card from the internet to redeem with my US Apple ID.

Does it okay if I redeem it outside of the US? (Currently, I’m not staying in the US)

Does Apple allow this or I need to get back into the US to redeem the gift card?


Thank you.

Sorry, is not OK.

See this Apple article:  If you can't redeem your Apple Gift Card or App Store & iTunes Gift Card

If you can't redeem your Apple Gift Card or App Store & iTunes Gift Card - Apple Support

You can't redeem Apple Gift Cards or App Store & iTunes Gift Cards outside the country or region of purchase. For example, if you bought an App Store & iTunes Gift Card in France, you can't redeem it in the App Store in the United States.



Does Apple allow this or I need to get back into the US to redeem the gift card?

Yes, based on -> Apple Store Gift Cards -> Legal - Apple Store Gift Cards - Apple

Apple Store Gift Cards have no expiration date; however, Apple may amend eligible purchases and locations for redemption with appropriate and reasonable notice by updating the Apple Store Gift Card terms and conditions at Legal - Apple Store Gift Cards - Apple
